Why you can’t catch dandruffYou only get dandruff if you’re sensitive to the main causes, and you’re either sensitive or you’re not ­– it’s not something that can be caught like a cold or flu virus.

If you are sensitive to the combination of Malassezia and scalp oils, your body responds by speeding up the production of skincells, causing excess skin to build up and appear as flakes.

Other symptoms include irritation, redness, itching and a dry scalp.

How to get rid of dandruffThe best way to treat your dandruff is by using a tried and tested anti-dandruff shampoo that contains an active ingredient clinically proven to be effective on all the symptoms.

Like Head & Shoulders. We have conducted more than 225 clinical studies at independent research facilities. That means you can trust that every dandruff shampoo we make will provide effective dandruff protection.
